Optimizing treatment choice through understanding more than twenty popular types of therapy. Different Patients, Different Therapies is a guide to choosing among the many psychotherapeutic options available to patients and therapists today. Offering a systematic approach, Deborah L. Cabaniss and Yael Holoshitz outline more than twenty different types of therapy, including psychodynamic psychotherapy, CBT, DBT, MI, and ACT. At the heart of the book are vignettes of typical clinical situations, accompanied by commentary about treatment choice from more than thirty psychotherapy experts. Written in accessible, jargon- free language, this book is as suitable for an introductory class on psychotherapy for any mental- health training program as it is for a seasoned therapist or someone considering psychotherapeutic treatment. Chapters include exercises to help readers think through new ways of helping patients to optimize treatment decisions. Reviews and Endorsements: "This single-source comprehensive volume describing the range of effective psychotherapies complements similar volumes dedicated to psychotropic drugs, and will greatly assist clinicians in making informed treatment selections. Different Patients, Different Therapies is an academic tour de force that will be an invaluable resource for mental health professionals and an essential contribution to the psychiatric canon." —Jeffrey Lieberman, Professor and Chair of Psychiatry at Columbia University and New York Presbyterian Hospital, past President of the American Psychiatric Association and the author of Shrinks: The Untold Story of Psychiatry "Efforts to advance the science of psychiatric practice have for decades primarily focused on psychopharmacology. What about that same rigor for the psychotherapies? This book provides guidance about which psychotherapies to choose for which conditions, which patients, why, and even a primer on how. Through differential psychotherapeutics, every patient can be uniquely considered by an active, informed process of ‘learning, thinking, matching, and discussing.’ Dr. Cabaniss and Dr. Holoshitz show us that therapy is not just an art, it’s a science." — Lloyd I. Sederer, M.D., Distinguished Psychiatrist Advisor, NYS Office of Mental Health, Adjunct Professor, Columbia University School of Public Health, Director, Columbia Psychiatry Media "This book offers a well-articulated strategy for assessing and treating patients. The authors name their approach ‘differential psychotherapeutics,’ delineating the steps of learning, thinking, matching, and discussing, and then explicating 23 treatment options, such as in CBT, psychodynamic, interpersonal, family, and strength/values-based therapies. Next, experts from these various perspectives are invited to comment on how they would work with patients who have a wide range of psychopathologies. All clinicians—from those early in training to the most senior—who wish to deepen their comparative understanding should read this book. There is no other book that I know of which is as helpful in envisioning the future direction of the field of psychotherapy." — Elliot Jurist, Professor of Psychology and Philosophy, The City College of New York, and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York Table of Contents: Contributors Acknowledgments Preface PART I: DIFFERENTIAL PSYCHOTHERAPEUTICS 1.
